Now, with the creation of the brand-new Miata Trophy, first generation and third generation MX-5s will do battle in a fierce competition that offers drivers plenty on and off the track.

The classification for cars fighting for the championship derives from the two-letter manufacturer chassis codes. NA class will provide the platform for first generation MX-5s to compete, with NC class offering the same for third generation vehicles.

Used around the globe as an alternative title for the Mazda MX-5, the word ‘Miata’ derives from the Old High German for ‘reward’ and both NA and NC class drivers will be well-rewarded in success, with a number of prizes offered throughout the campaign.

Each race event will kick off with an exhilarating qualifying format, that sees the top ten fastest qualifiers take on ‘SuperPole’ – a winner takes all shootout for the front of the grid. Once the grid is completed competitors will vie for victory across two sprint races, providing plenty of thrilling on-track action. The starting grid for race two is determined by the results of race one.

Miata Trophy will challenge Mazda MX-5 drivers across some of the UK’s finest circuits, including a season opener on the highly prestigious Brands Hatch Grand Prix Circuit.

Two classes, two class champions.

The two 2023 class championship winners will win a prize drive as part of a team in a pre-selected 2024 EnduroKA event - typically the 12 Heures du Norfolk at Snetterton!
